Announcements relating to Windows. (Moderated)
The comp.os.ms-windows.announce group is a moderated news group for
announcing anything related to Microsoft Windows or Windows NT.
Articles are subject to editing or rejection.
Typical postings include new uploads to ftp sites, software/hardware
releases or updates, meetings, conferences, exhibits, services, or
rumors (reliable sources only ;).
Especially useful are NEW uploads to FTP sites, which are easy to
spot here, as opposed to other windows groups which receive 100's of
posts per day. So if you're first to upload a file to one of the FTP
sites (cica/metalab/etc), please feel free to send me an announcement.
Posts regarding announcements about other Operating System vendors are
fine as long as the primarily relate to Microsoft Windows/NT (examples:
Sun's WABI, or IBM's OS/2 for Windows).
For the most part, postings should generally be around 150 lines in
length. There are obvious exceptions and if you think you have
one, please submit the article.
This group is not for Job offerings (see misc.jobs.offered) or
Opinions on a posting (follow-ups to comp.os.ms-windows.misc). If you
grab a piece of software mentioned on this group and find a dangerous
bug, please feel free to send me a note detailing the circumstances, if
it's serious, I'll post it.
Marketing hype will be edited from all postings. If you market
a Windows product, please post it's features, pricing and availability,
please don't post the company's history/philosophy.
